During these school holidays Ryan McNaught has two different shows running on opposite sides of the country. Here are the details of both.

Wonders of The World – Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre – June 22 to July 30

Explore world famous landmarks with more than 50 awe-inspiring models on display at the ‘Wonders of the World’ exhibition. You can take a hands-on educational journey through history, learning about each attraction. You can even put your own building skills to the test in the master builder zones and help with some of the model making.

The Brickman Experience - Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre – June 24 to July 9

Brickman Experience features a collection of individual works by LEGO® Certified Professional Ryan McNaught. Build your own LEGO® masterpieces in the interactive builder zones and see a range of models made up from more than 5 million LEGO® bricks including his biggest ever LEGO ® Star Wars X-wing, a model Airbus A380, a quarter scale LEGO® Ferrari and the world’s largest LEGO® flower.

Ryan McNaught has been touring two different events around Australia and I admit that I completely missed the latest dates. For those readers who haven’t seen these events advertised elsewhere here are the details.

Wonders of the World – Melbourne Museum – Until May 7th

The Wonders of the World exhibition features more than 50 awe-inspring models on display, taking visitors on a hands-on journey through history. Some of the models that will be showcased include a giant LEGO® Arc de Triomphe, LEGO® Empire State Building with Kong Kong, LEGO® Big Ben, a LEGO® Leaning Tower of Pisa! And even Michelangelo’s statue of David made from LEGO ® bricks.

Perth people, get ready to immerse yourself in all things LEGO as Australia’s largest exhibition of LEGO works heads to Perth! Brick Man Experience – The Complete Collection by Ryan McNaught, is back by public demand and is heading to Elizabeth Quay for 14 days only.

Following three sell-out tours in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, Ryan is bringing his remarkable collection of 60 LEGO works to Ashton’s Big Top Tent on the magnificent foreshore site at the newly launched Elizabeth Quay from 7th until 20th April.

Read on for more information about the show and your chance to win a family pass.

Brick Man Experience – The Complete Collection by Ryan McNaught, a world first spectacular exhibition made entirely from LEGO® bricks is heading to Sydney following its successful debut in Melbourne.

Back by public demand, the exhibition will head to Sydney for 16 days only with Ryan’s remarkable collection of 60 LEGO® works on display at Sydney Town Hall from June 27th – July 12th. Early bird tickets are on sale now via brickmanexperience.com.au.

Sixty original works will be featured along with their own unique behind the scenes story, including original drawings and sketches. A variety of Ryan’s LEGO® works will be displayed including a never seen before
QANTAS A380, a quarter scale LEGO® Ferrari and a giant space shuttle. Incredibly, over 5 million LEGO® bricks make up the works!

In addition to Ryan’s pieces, for the first time anywhere in the world, works from other LEGO® Certified Professionals will be displayed, based around the ‘Transport’ theme from their native country.

“I am thrilled to be bringing the Brick Man Experience to Sydney! It’s great for me to be able to have all my works together in one place for people to enjoy. This is the last chance to see these works on display in
Australia so it really is a must-see for all the family!” said Ryan McNaught.

Ryan continues, “We had a great response to the exhibition in Melbourne and I’m really excited to share my creations with LEGO fans in Sydney. I’ve also got a few exciting things for the kids (and big kids!) to participate in, so everyone can enjoy creating brick masterpieces as well as enjoying the exhibition. It’s going to be heaps of fun!”

LEGO® bricks play a cherished role in childhoods across the globe – the beloved plastic bricks have been around for over 50 years! Back in 2010, Ryan took his love for LEGO® to a whole new level by becoming the
only LEGO® Certified Professional in the Southern Hemisphere – he now goes by the name of ‘The Brick Man’.

Proud to be one of only 12 LEGO® Certified Professionals in the world, and the only one in the Southern Hemisphere, Ryan ‘The Brick man’ McNaught used to be a slave to the corporate world before trading in the
boardroom for a LEGO® workshop! Traditionally, Ryan’s internationally awarded works are the domain of the toy section in department stores but for the first time you can see them all together in the one place!
Married with twin sons and based in Melbourne, Ryan’s greatest concern is that there’s a whole lot of eight year olds out there who want to bump him off to take his job!

Australia’s only LEGO Certified Professional – Ryan McNaught – will for the first time ever exhibit his remarkable LEGO creations at BRICKMAN EXPERIENCE in Melbourne March 31st – April 12th and then Sydney June 27th- July 12th.

More than 50 original works will be featured along with their own unique behind the scenes story, including original drawings and sketches. A variety of Ryan’s LEGO works will be displayed with over 5 million LEGO bricks making up the works.

Ryan took some time out from his busy schedule to talk to Bricking Around about the show, and life as a LEGO professional.
